XR #152 Ready To Read and Download
https://efanzines.com/RXXR/RXXR-152.pdf My ezine is also available via email listed at the top of each edition. Subject: SUBSCRIBE. In the past I would post a direct link to my email but Google has fucked up blogger so much I can't do that. ThanX, Google, for wrecking this service. From now on I'm only posting links to my ezine. Even doing this little has become a major PIA.
A Good Memory Can Save The World
© 2020 Ray Palm From Ray X X-Rayer #151. Back issues here: https://efanzines.com/RXXR/index.htm A while back Presidentoid Trump was boasting how he aced what he claimed was a difficult memory test. He was able to recall five words: Person, man, woman, camera, TV. After an alien visitor is apparently killed in the movie The Day The Earth Stood Still(1951) a robot named Gort is activated to destroy the planet. Only one woman has the key words to stop the robot: Gort Klaatu Barada Nitko. She faces the robot, repeating the four key words. Just in the nick of time she stops Gort's Cyclopean eye beam from disintegrating her. Gort stands down, the rampage is ended. So what if Memory Master Trump had to recall the same keywords? It would go like this: "Uh... Mort. Kahlua Bacardi nicotine." Ergo the world ends. (9/25/20: Edited sentence for clarity.)
ThanX Google For Fucking Up Blogger
I've spent half-an-hour trying to post the previous article. In the past I would copy and paste an article with no problems. I had switched to the new blogger format but everything kept screwing up. Then I went back to the previous version but still had problems. I had to convert the article to plain text, stripping away all the links I had throughout the post. I only bothered to restore the link to my ezine where you will find all the links intact. If this happens again I will only post a link to the latest issue of my ezine and forget this crapified place. A quick search reveals that I'm not the only one having problems with the new and improved format. If it's not broken FUCK IT UP!
Lasers! Exploding Smart Sensors! Anti-Salubrious Cell Towers!
Rick Loomis / Getty Images By Ray X Why enjoy science fiction only as entertainment when you can live it? For example Bill Gates is the James Bond supervillian behind the Covid-19 pandemic. He created the deadly disease! 5g cellphone towers are spreading Covid-19. That's why concerned citizens have been setting them on fire in England. Meanwhile in Australia bush fires were started by exploding smart sensors and lasers. What is behind this infernal plot? The fires are making away for a high speed rail link, all part of a UN project to depopulate the world. The high speed rail will help reduce the population of rural areas that are generally conservative, forcing people off the land to be vegans living in city apartments. But this is nothing new. Back in 2018 wildfires were ravaging California thanks to DEWs – directed energy weapons. That's why some structures were left standing while others were destroyed. Those damn nefarious government traitors! All o...
